I became DIO's vicious stepmother

Chapter 48 Dior's Thoughts

"Ah... you're back, Dio."

Seeing Dior who just pushed the door in without saying hello, I felt a little bit dissatisfied in my heart.

Especially because of the Thai massage, I was only wrapped in a bath towel. Children of this age are beginning to have gender awareness, especially Dior is much more precocious than ordinary children, which is not good.

But I still pretended not to be angry, and greeted him kindly, "Dior, why did you come back suddenly today? If you had written to me earlier and told me, I would have bought vegetables for you and made a big meal."

During this time, Dior was quite honest, and would write back to me every month.Although the content is as short as completing the daily check-in tasks and never revealing what I have been doing recently, it is also a good start.But the last time he sent a letter was two weeks ago, and he didn't mention his intention to go home.

In fact, I hope he never comes home.

"..."

Dio seemed to have seen an incredible scene, with a strange expression on his face. He stared at us for a long time before he frowned and said, "...What are you doing? Who is this woman?"

"Oh, it's the maid I invited to help with housework. I wanted to tell you when I wrote this month, but I didn't expect you to come back directly."

I waved my hand, and Marlene quickly covered me with a blanket, then I got up wrapped in the blanket, sat on the bed and looked at Dio and said, "Why do you look so anxious, what happened?"

"Oh... nothing."

Dio was stunned, he stared at my face, seemed to think for a while before saying, "I heard your screams, and thought something happened."

"Do you care about me, Dio."

I was suddenly surprised, is this possible?

... No no no, I'm not a fool.Think clearly, even if Dior is worried about others, it is for his own sake.After all, he still needs my care, and now he is planning to study hard to change his life, so he must have a parent who can accompany him through college, otherwise, without a guardian to take care of him, the road ahead will be very difficult, and he also needs my help Apply to schools.

At present, as long as I don't pose a threat to him, he will never be willing to leave me, so even if I treat him a little too much, as long as I don't anger him, nothing will happen.

And what the hell kind of excuse is that?During the massage, I hummed a few times at most, is it that exaggerated?

My sharp mind suddenly noticed something.

Dio's reaction seemed a bit weird to me, and I thought it might not be because he was worried about my accident. According to my reasoning... He most likely suspected that I was having an affair!

That's right, the case was solved... His excuse was very poor!

But even if I find a lover, what does it matter to him?How many times have I said, I will not marry someone else and leave him alone, really...

I feel very dissatisfied in my heart, but there is no way, after all, Dio will not trust anyone at all.Even if you make a promise to him, he will be suspicious of any sign of something wrong. This person is very difficult to get along with, and he is the most sensitive person I have ever met.

"..."

What I said made Dio startled again, suddenly, there seemed to be an emotion similar to panic flashing across his face.

But he quickly recovered his expressionless face, looked at me with some disdain and said, "Yes, if something happens to you, it will be very troublesome for me, after all, I still need you now."

...Why didn't he just admit his doubts about me?

Do you find that the actual situation is not what you imagined, feel that your thoughts are too low and embarrassed to admit it, so you want to use other reasons to muddle through?

I complained about him crazily in my heart, but we also pretended to be stupid to each other, so there was no need to expose it.So I nodded to him with a smirk and said, "Thank you for your concern, Dio, but the law and order in the West End is much better than we imagined. Since I moved here, I have never felt stared at by others. , the people living here are all nobles, and even the police are more dedicated than those in the East District, so we can live with peace of mind."

"yes."

Dio quickly changed the subject, as if he cared more about Dorian Gray than anything else. He leaned against the wall, stared at me deeply and asked, "Have you seen that guy in the photo studio last time?" guy?"

"No, he lives quite far away from us." I shook my head and replied.Unless I can't figure it out, I will have nothing to provoke him. Even if I plan to find some lovers to play with, he is not the object I will consider.Although he is really handsome, it must be considered that this guy who likes to mess around must have germs on his body and is a super carrier. Medical technology is backward in this era, and it will be over if he gets infected with X disease!I remember that many street girls died of eyebrow poisoning, especially when I saw him find two street girls in a photo studio to take those kind of photos not long ago...it was really outrageous.

But what is surprising is that Joestar's house in London is not far from here... I remember that in the original book, they lived in a house in the country, and it was a long carriage ride from London to London.

Perhaps the butterfly effect formed by Dalio's disappearance has brought the distance between them and Dio closer. I don't know if this is fate, or we should pay attention to it.

Of course, it is no longer possible for Dior to become the adopted son of their family, and the murder of money in the main line of the original book will never happen.The possibility of him becoming a vampire has been reduced to very low, but it still cannot be taken lightly.

I decided to write a letter to Joestar's family in the future and use the last resort: spoiler Dafa.

Tell them the plot of the Jojo family a hundred years later, and let them find their own way to solve those chain problems... And without Dior as a shit stick, the fourth hand-controlled BOSS Yoshikage Kira cannot awaken superpowers—stand-in Strength, cowardly as a dog, he finds that if he can't kill people safely without being caught, he can only be an ordinary office worker, relying on buying models and manpower to come to BOKI...

What's more, if there is no golden arrow, except for those talented people, there will not be so many substitute messengers, and the world will be much safer. Reminding them to dispose of the golden arrow is also the key...

I was so full of thoughts that I decided to calm down someday and think about this issue, so I said to Dio, "I need to change my clothes, Dio."

It means get out, you can leave my room.

"……Oh."

Dior responded knowingly, then left quickly, and closed the door for me.

Dior's sudden return home disrupted my original plan for the holiday, and asked Marlene to buy some oysters and come back to continue Thai massage later.

After changing clothes and going downstairs, I saw that Dior was already sitting on the sofa downstairs reading a book.It may be that the air pressure emitted by him is very low. Both Marlene and Susan stood by, a little nervous and afraid to move.

I basically have no requirements for the maids at home, and they are not afraid of me, but out of cherishing this job, they will consciously do things well.After seeing me coming down the stairs, Ma Lin seemed to be relieved, and hurriedly greeted me.

"Hello, ma'am."

"You can get off work early today. Help me buy some oysters and beef later, and then go to the yard to dig some carrots and potatoes, and make borscht at night. I can do it myself."

I gave Marlene a shilling and introduced them to Dio, "This is the maid who came to help us, Marlene and Susan."

"Oh." Dio looked up at them, seemingly not interested in much, "I don't understand why you want to hire two. It's a waste of money."

That's not what you said when you bought me the diamond necklace!I shouted in my heart.

"Because Susan's father wants her to find a job. If I don't keep her, she will be sent to a textile factory as a child laborer. You know, child laborers will die young. Although I can't save everyone, I can't save her." Not a philanthropist, but it's all in front of me, which makes my conscience very disturbed. I think it's fate, and I can afford the daily salary, so I hired her to take care of the cat. But Susan is still a little young now, When she grows up, she can help Ma Lin share more work."

"..."

After hearing what I said, Dio, who had no reaction at first, closed the book and narrowed his eyes slightly, "Are you that kind of stupid, bad guy?"

"Yeah, otherwise, why am I willing to take care of you so diligently? What am I trying to do to you? Is it because you have a bad temper, or because you are young?"

You can't have double standards in life!You can't look down on others if you take advantage of yourself!

I taunted back unceremoniously, and Dio was also very surprised immediately. He stared at me with a strange expression, but he calmed down quickly. He seemed to think about it, and then said darkly, "Then, as a servant, Can I ask them to do anything?"

"Of course not." I refused honestly.

"Marlene and Susan just came to our house to work. You need to learn to respect them before asking them for help, and you can't make excessive demands."

Marlene and Susan suddenly looked a little panicked, "No, ma'am, it's okay, you can call us as you like."

"It's not possible."

Dior is not a good person. I am worried that he will force the maids to do bad things for him, which will harm these two girls.

Anyway, now that Dior and I have known each other's true colors, there is no need to put on airs, so I decided to make things clear first.

"You can never force them to do something they don't want to do."

Then I looked at the two girls again, "If he makes any embarrassing demands on you, you can come to me, and I will uphold justice for you. You must never do anything illegal."

"Yes, ma'am, you are really kind." Marlene and Susan panicked.

"........."

So Dio was silent for a while, he narrowed his eyes, showing a slight displeasure, stared at me dangerously and said.

"...You want to treat me like this because of two maids?"

"You're not right, Dio, I've always been fair."

I corrected him, "And what's wrong with the maids? You're making the mistake of subjectivism, you can't look down on the maids, it's just a job. I pay money, they work for me, they're equals, and It depends on the will of the parties, they can resign at any time, and of course I will fire them if they don’t do well, everything is based on the premise of freedom and independent will.”

The two girls didn't seem to understand what I was saying at all, and they looked at each other dumbfounded, and I didn't stop, and continued to analyze to Dio, "When you helped Mrs. Sterling's housework, did you feel that you were inferior? No, we just give labor for money, and we never stop there, there is no distinction between high and low work, and there is nothing to be ashamed of. It is the same for these two girls. Don't force things that you don't like. Learn to empathize, Dio."

"..."

Maybe because he thought what I said made sense, Dio actually became quiet. He raised his chin, as if he was thinking seriously.

Not long after, Dio seemed to have figured it out. He raised his head and looked at me quietly, but suddenly said something unexpected.

"It's true to say so, but letting others do things they don't want makes me happy... Jenny."
